Today’s song is from a Mythological film ” Usha Haran’-1949.

Hindi films or for that matter Indian films are a mix of various Genres. They cater to almost every segment of Indian society. Some stories are more popular than others and some Genres give surprises. For example, one would feel that comedy films are very popular, but statistics says that Tragedy films too are equally supported by the audience.One glaring example is, the early tragedy films of Dilip kumar ( in which he invariably died at the end ) and Meena Kumari and Nimmi made them Grade 1 artistes ! On the contrary, none of the3 comedy actors like master Bhagwan, Mehmood or even kishore Kumar were ever called A class actors !!
However, there is one type of Genre which has been indisputably a winner all the way and that is films on Love stories, from Romeo Juliet to Bajirao Mastani. From 1931 onwards and even during the Silent Era, film makers made films on various Love stories, from Folklore to Arabian Nights to Mythological stories. Love stories were available in every state and language. The Puranas, the Ramayan and the Mahabharat too were replete with such Love stories.

Famous Love stories are known to most people. Stories like Romeo Juliet, Laila Majnu, Shirin Farhad from outside India were and are well known. Even Historical love stories like Jodha Akbar, Bajirao Mastani, Prithviraj Sanyogita, Salim Anarkali and Amrapali Bimbisar are known to many. From Mythology Radha Krishna, Subhadra Arjun and Uttara Abhimanyu are well known.

However, how many of us know the love stories of Wamiq Azra, Usha Anirudha, Dhola Maru, Mumal Mahendra or Amaravathi Ambikapathy ? It is also interesting to note how films were made on these famous love stories.

Movie Year(s) of release Origin of story
Romeo Juliet 1947 Italian story….Folklore
Laila Majnu 1945/53/56/2012 Arabian
Laila 1954/84 Arabian

Today we will present a song from the film Usha haran-1949, which is based on the Love story of Banasur’s beautiful daughter Usha and Shri Krishna’s equally handsome grandson (son of Pradyumn)- Anirudha. This story is unique in our Mythology because it involves a war between Lord Shiv ji and Lord Shri Krishna. Here is the story, as I found in the New Indian Express dated 1-8-2014.

The Asura king Bana was the great grandson of Prahlada, the child devotee most dear to Lord Krishna. Through penance and prayers offered to Lord Shiva, he secured a boon that the great god himself would personally guard his city of Sonitapura. Banasura was an arrogant king and had a thousand arms which he was very proud of. But this is not quite his story. It’s his daughter’s….

Usha, the daughter of Banasura, was a beautiful princess. One night she had a dream in which she saw a very handsome, young man. It was love at first sight for them and they spent many happy hours in each other’s company. But like all good things, dreams too come to an end. And Usha woke up to find that all that passed was nothing but a dream.

When Chitralekha, her best friend, came to find her that morning, she found the princess tearful and greatly upset. “What’s wrong with you today? What happened now?” she asked puzzled, for they had parted the evening before in high spirits.

“You may think me foolish but I had this very vivid dream last night about this handsome young man, a prince, perhaps… I really do not know for I’ve never seen anybody like that.” Usha’s voice trailed off.

“Who is this person? You must have seen him somewhere before, surely… think back…,” urged Chitralekha.

“I’m very sure I’ve never seen him before. I don’t think he even exists.” At this point Usha broke into fresh tears and Chitralekha knew she had to do something.

“Okay, I can paint the likeness of any man or god for I’ve learnt painting from Narada himself. Let me start painting some of the handsomest gods and mortals we have and maybe you will see your beloved’s face among them.”

Chitralekha was soon sketching the faces of gods, devas and gandharvas with an expert’s ease. Finally, she painted Lord Krishna.

“Yes, this looks like him, but not quite…,” said Usha from behind her. Next Chitra painted Pradyumna, son of Krishna. “What about him?”

“Umm… he’s younger… but you are close.” Usha was cheering up, her friend noted. Chitralekha continued to make another sketch and when she showed it to her friend, the princess smiled in delight and her cheeks coloured. “Ah… So this is the prince who has stolen your heart! He’s Aniruddha, the grandson of the Krishna of Dwaraka,” laughed Chitralekha, happy to have solved the mystery. “Is this who you desire? I shall bring him to you tonight!”

“What? How?” Usha could not understand what her friend was saying.

“Relax… don’t worry about anything. Just wait for the night to fall.” Chitralekha’s dark eyes were shining and Usha knew her friend had a plan.

Chitralekha was trained in yoga and could travel to wherever she wished, in record time. That night she flew to the palace of Krishna in Dwaraka and made her way to young Anirudda’s chambers. Lifting the sleeping prince in her arms, (yes, some supergirl she was) she hastened back to Sonitapura and gently laid him beside the sleeping Usha.

Next morning, Aniruddha was woken up by a beautiful stranger and found himself in surroundings unknown to him. “Where am I? And who are you?” he asked the maiden who smiled at him. Usha shyly related to him her dream and how her friend actually went and found him for her. Aniriddha was puzzled and thought that maybe he was in a dream too. But as it seemed pleasant enough, he was happy not to fight it.

Many happy days passed and the two young people fell in love. At least Aniruddha too, we can conclude. But this happy state of affairs could not continue for long. One day, Bana’s guards saw the young couple talking and laughing, and alerted the asura king. Bana walked into his daughter’s chambers unannounced and was shocked to find Aniruddha there. The prince was immediately captured and taken prisoner.

In Dwaraka, everyone was saddened and worried by the sudden disappearance of the young prince. It was sage Narada, who on an apparently ‘casual’ visit there, informed them about how Aniruddha was taken prisoner.

Balarama, Krishna’s older brother, was amused. “So Krishna, we have here a chip off the old block, huh? Now we have to go rescue him, looks like.”

Krishna smiled too. “It’s time we attacked Bana’s city,” he said for all of it happens for a reason. The Yadava heroes, Balarama, Pradyumna, Satyaki, led by Sri Krishna himself, marched towards Sonitapura and attacked the city.

But there was Lord Shiva himself they had to vanquish, for it was he who was entrusted with the city’s protection. So began the battle between the great gods, Shiva and Krishna. Shiva’s son, Kartikeya joined his father and engaged in a battle with Pradyumna.

Divine arrows flew back and forth as devas and other gods watched from the heavens in wonder. Finally Krishna sent forth the Vijrumbhana astra, a sleep inducing arrow which struck Lord Shiva who promptly fell asleep!

Bana, who was fighting Satayaki, came towards Krishna. Krishna effortlessly broke each of his bows and finally threw his divine discus Sudarshana at him, which cut away his thousand arms.

At that point, Lord Shiva woke up and intervened on his devotee’s behalf. “Do not kill him Krishna, he’s a devotee of mine who has sought my protection.”

“Do not worry. I promised Prahlada that I would kill none of his kin. With his thousand arms cut off, he will no longer be so arrogant. Let him remain an attendant of yours, always beside you forever.”

Hearing Krishna’s words, a humble Banasura fell at the feet of the gods.

He then went back to his palace and returned with the young couple, Aniruddha and Usha. He placed them on a chariot and let them return to Dwaraka together.

Film Usha Haran-1949 was directed by Dr. Shanti Kumar – not to be confused with Music with Director Shanti Kumar Desai. In spite of several attempts, I could not get any information on this director for the last so many years. I only know that he has directed 18 films from Police-1944 to Mahasati Behula-1964.

The Music Director was Saraswati Devi – who was the discovery of Bombay Talkies in the mid 30’s. The lead pair was Arun Ahuja(Govinda’s father) and Ratnamala. Today’s duet is sung by Shailesh Mukherjee and Rajkumari. This is only the third song from the film out of 12 songs, to feature here. Enjoy….

#the Decade of Forties – 1941 – 1950 #
————————————————————————

In this post I present a wonderful song which I came across while browsing and listening to a few songs.

This song is from the ‘1949’ movie ‘Janmapatri’ or ‘Janmpatri’.

It was directed by K.P. Shahani for ‘Popular Productions, Bombay’.

The cast of this movie had Sudha Rao, Hamid, Zebunnisa, Chandabai, Vijay Kumar, Leela Gupte, A. Shah, Susheela, Nazir Kashmiri, Pran, Ratan Piya, Khatana, Shamo, Abdul and others.

‘Janmpatri-1949’ has eight songs in it. Lyrics for all these eight songs were written by Aziz Kashmiri. Music for this movie was composed by Gulshan Soofi.

Khan Mastana, Soofi, Hamida Bano and Rajkumari had given their voices to the songs in this movie.

‘Janmpatri-1949’ made its debut on the blog with its song ‘wo aa gaye hain pyaar ki duniya liye huye’ . This post was presented on 16.09.2016 by our respected Shri Sadanand Kamath ji with detailed information on the lyrics writer of this movie i.e. Aziz Kashmiri.

The second song from this movie was presented by Shri Atul ji and it was posted on 28.10.2017. The song in this post is ‘dil mera tadpaane waalaa shaad rahe Aabaad rahe’.

Today we present the third song from this movie. This song is sung by Rajkumari andfemale chorus.

This song is a ‘missing the beloved’ type song where the girl is sharing her thoughts with her ‘sakhis’, who are actively supporting her to find the solution. 🙂

Let us now listen to this wonderful song …

Only audio of this song is available.

We observe that as many as five movies (out of eight) whose songs were covered on this date ten years ago (on 18 march 2013) have since been YIPPEED on the blog. That leaves us with three unYIPPEED movies that are eligible for blog ten year challenge.

The movie had nine songs in it. Two songs have been covered so far.

Here is the third song from the movie to appear in the blog. The song is sung by Rajkumari and Sardar Mansoor. A Karim is the lyricist. Music is composed by Chhanalal Nayak.

Video of the song is available. I request our knowledgeable readers to help identify the actors seen in the picturisation.

————————————————————————————–

On this date ten years back viz on 14 March 2013, nine songs from eight different movies (plus one Non Film song) were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

Blog post number Song Movie (Year) Remarks
7672 Ud jaa re ud jaa papeehe Vishkanya(1943) 7 songs covered out of 12 by now

7680 Papa kehte hain bada naam karega Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak (1988) 3 songs covered out of 6 by now

It can be seen that out of two movies (out of eight) whose songs were covered on this date ten years ago (on 14 March 21013) have since been YIPPEED. So technically six movies are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today. But in reality, songs of some of the movies are unavailable.

One movie whose songs are available, is “Chandan”(1941). This movie was directed by Dhirubai B Desai for Ashok Pictures, Bombay. The movie had Nazir, Kanta(Kumari), Ashiq Husein, Baby Lalita, Bala Bhai, Miss Maya Devi, Wazir Muhammad Khan, Jamshed Ji, Miss Anwari, Srimati Sindhu Gadgil, Saadik, Hari das, etc in it.

Chandan”(1941) had 12 songs in it. One song has been covered so far.

Here is the second song from “Chandan”(1941), exactly ten years later to the date after the movie debuted in the blog on 14 March 2013.

The song is sung by Rajkumari. Pt Indra Chandra is the lyricist. Music is composed by S N Tripathi.

Lyrics of the song were sent to me by Prakashchandra.

One movie (out of four) whose songs were covered on that day has since been YIPPEED in the blog. So three of those movies are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (2 March 2023).

Today’s song is a female-female duet from the film Swami-1941.

1941 was the beginning of a new decade. After the Talkie film’s entry, this was the second decade. There were many changes taking place continuously in the film making and so it was interesting to know how the year 1941 fared. The 30s and the 40s mostly differed in film music and story contents. The new blood composers like Anil Biswas, C Ramchandra, Naushad, Ghulam Haider, K Datta, Hansraj Behl, Bulo C Rani, Gyan Dutt and many more replaced the Parsi, Marathi and Gujarati drama music to more acceptable lilting songs. Many musical films were made and some everlasting songs were composed by these people.

At the end of the 1940s, one more major change in the film industry took place due to Partition. More about it in the coming times. Let us see some important films which were worth a second look in 1941….

JBH Wadia produced the First Sindhi film ‘Ekta’ in 1940 and released it in 1941. His film Court Dancer-1941 (Raj Nartaki in Hindi and Bangla) was also in English.

Asra- Debut of actor director N A Ansari.

Behan- Mehboob directed this film having an incest suggestive story.

Chandan- Debut of S N Tripathi as an MD

Chitralekha- First big success of Kidar Sharma. Mehtab’s bath scene caused a ripple.

Dhandhora- Actor comedian Charlie directed the only film.

Doctor- Pankaj Mullick gave excellent songs. First popular song with Hoof beats-‘ Chale pawan ki chaal ‘.

Jhoola- One of the most successful films like Kangan and Bandhan, starring Ashok kunmar and Leela Chitnis.

Kanchan- First composed song of Naushad-” Bata do koi”

Khazanchi- A milestone in musical revolution with Punjabi Theka, by Ghulam Haider. Debut of Shamshad Begum in Hindi films.

Lagan- Saigal, as usual, gives good songs.

Mala- was remade as ‘ Amar-55’ with music again by Naushad only.

Naya Sansar- Story of Newspaper world. A novelty. Ashok Kumar’s famous cigarette smoking in films started from this film, solving his problem of ‘ what to do with the hands during acting’ !

Nirdosh- Mukesh sings his first film song.

Padosi- Last film of V Shantaram before leaving Prabhat. A Landmark film. ” Kaisa chhaya hai ujala” is a popular chorus song.

Pardesi- Debut of actress Anjali Devi (not the southwali) with real name ‘Durgesh’.

Radhika- Debut of Nalini Jaywant.

Raj Nartaki- Ambitious Wadia film in English , Bangla and Hindi. Released in the USA by Columbia Pictures of Hollywood.

Sangam- Amritlal Nagar’s first film as a writer. He did 18 films as writer and Lyricist.

Sikandar- A Magnum-Opus from Minerva. Chorus song- ” Zindagi hai pyar se” is very popular.

Taj mahal- Debut of Baby Suraiya as an actress.

Sasural and Ummeed were 2 films in which Noorjehan senior acted and sang. However these films are usually wrongly included in the filmography of Malika E Tarannum Noor jehan. She entered Hindi films only with the film Khandan-1942 at Lahore.

With a backdrop of such films and music in 1941, no wonder film Swami-41 was not shining. It was an average film There was neither anything special in its story nor its music. This resulted in an average response at the Box office. As such the music director and most of the cast was in the fading phase. This affected the producer of the film Chimanlal Trivedi – owner of the banner CIRCO Productions. Soon he closed it down and started his new company ‘ Laxmi Productions’. Trivedi was an interesting person.

Chiman Lal Trivedi, was one of the major filmmakers of the 30s and the 40s decade. He was more a Producer businessman than a Director. While he directed hardly 7 films, he produced close to 50 films- all having A grade actors, directors and composers !

Born on 19-3-1909 at a village near Anand in Gujarat he was from a Brahmin family. He did his schooling in Ahmedabad and technical graduation from Baroda. Being an expert in weaving, he took up a job as a weaving Master in Calcutta. Fond of writing, he started writing Dramas, which were staged in Bengal and Gujarat. He was attracted towards Cinema and tried some work in New Theatres. Knowing that the real playing field is Bombay he reached there. He wrote stories for the film Chevrolet-36 and Danger Signal-37 for Mohan pictures.

He established his own production company CIRCO (Cine Industries Recording Company) in 1937. By 1943, he had made 12 films. He preferred not to direct his films, but appointed directors like Mohan Sinha for Laxmi-40, Anuradha-40 and Vanmala-41, Balwant Bhatt for Suhag-40 and Madhusudan-41, A R Kardar for Swami-41 and Nai Duniya-42 and Debki Bose for Apna Ghar-42.

He had the art of getting the most popular stars for his films like, Prithviraj kapoor, Chandramohan, Durga Khote,Mazhar khan, Bibbo,Surendra, Jairaj, Sitara, Jeevan, Yaqub, Shobhana Samarth, Prem Adeeb, Vishnupant Pagnis,Leela Desai, Pahadi Sanyal, Shanta Apte and many others. Even big directors like Debki Bose,Nitin Bose, Kardar,Mohan Sinha, Sarvottam Badami, Nandlal Jaswantlal,Profull Roy, Sudhir Sen, R S Chaudhary, Phani mujumdar, Balwant Bhatt etc. worked for him. From Prabhat he brought Shanta Apte for Rs.1000 pm, and also Chandramohan, Pagnis and Mazhar khan. His friend Chandulal Shah followed his way and brought K L Saigal from New Theatres !

C L Trivedi was an expert in gathering funds for his films. After CIRCO at Parel, he started Laxmi Productions at Andheri, in 1942. He made mera Gaon,Sharafat,Bhagya Laxmi,Kadambari,Tamanna,Inkaar,Mohabbat, Miss Devi etc. In 1951, it was Supreme Pictures, Trivedi Productions was in 1952, Kala Kendra in 1953 and with Chitra Bharati in 1954, he made 13 films upto 1961. Top Composers like Timir Baran,Ashok Ghosh,Rafiq Gaznavi,K C Dey,Saraswati Devi,Husnlal-Bhagatram and Naushad gave music to his films.

In the end, he turned to Stage and started Abhinay Bharati. He staged many dramas in Bombay and Gujarat. Chimanlal always went for big names. He had close relations with Nehru, Menon, Morarji Desai, and other National leaders. His wife Kantaben was a Leader herself. Chimanlal Trivedi died on 25-11-1973. His wife, 3 sons and a daughter settled in the USA.

It may be a coincidence, but Gujarati businessmen like Chimanlal Trivedi, Chimanlal Desai,Chimanlal Luhar, Chaturbhuj Doshi, Chimankant Desai, Chunibhai Desai and Chandulal Shah made sizable contribution to Hindi cinema in the first 20 years of the Talkie era. All names started with CH ( ? ) !

(Thanks to Harish Raghuwanshi ji for his book ” बॉलिवूडमा गुजरातीयो ” in Gujarati.)

The cast of the film Swami-41 was Sitara, Jairaj, Jeevan, Yaqub, Majid, Badri Prasad, Rajkumari, Radha Rani, S.Nazir, Ram Avtar and others. The lesser known names were Majid and Ram Avtar.

Majid’s name was Abdul Majid Syed. He was born at Farrukhabad in U.P. in 1915. His father was an Overseer. After matric in 1929, he started his business of Leather in Akola, Maharashtra. in 1935, actor, director and producer Nazeer of Hind pictures, introduced him to S.K.Daryani and he got a small role in Sher ka Panja-36 and Sangdil samaj-36. However, from film Bulldog-37, he got side roles and lead roles in films like Gentleman daku-37, insaaf-37, Rajkumari-38, Masterman-38, Zamana-38, Mud-40, Saubhagya-40, Swami-41, Swaminath-42, he also acted in more films like Najma-43, Babar-44 and Zeenat-45.

In all he did over 100 films till 1947. After Partition, he migrated to Pakistan with Nazeer and Swarnalata. In Pakistan he did just 7 films. He died on 24-9-1959.

Now about Ram Avtar- my favourite comedian. Ram Avtar Pandey was born on 11-11-1911, at Rampur-UP,. He started his filmi career in 1938 with character roles. In the early 50s, he switched to comedy, when he gained weight and a pot belly.

Ram Avtar was a fixture in many Nasir Hussain films. His roles in Badi Behan-49, Nagin-54, Hum sub chor hain-56, Tumsa nahin dekha-57, jab pyar kisi se hota hai-61, Phir vohi dil laya hoon-63, Teesri Manzil-67, Yaadon ki Baraat etc are memorable. I like his role in film Teesri Manzil-1967. His last film was Prem Geet-1981. His last released film, however, was Love and God-1986. He acted in 133 Hindi films. He died on 23-12-2011 at Mumbai.

Today’s female duet is sung by Rajkumari and Sitara. In this films they sang 2 such duets. Before or after this, they never sang together again. Rafiq Ghaznavi’s music still followed the 30’s music pattern only, which had already been discarded by people in the 40’s.
